Dr. Butera to Leave in July for New Opportunity

Dr. Vincent Butera, our Superintendent of Schools since late 2012, has been identified as the lone finalist for the position of Superintendent of Schools in Manhasset. The expectation is that Dr. Butera will be approved as the next Superintendent of Manhasset on Saturday. He will continue to lead our district through the end of the school year.

Dr. Butera has provided Bayport-Blue Point with more than four years of effective leadership. We are grateful for his contributions and congratulate him on taking another step forward in his career.

Obviously, this transition will prompt the Board to take all necessary and appropriate steps to replace Dr. Butera when he departs in July, a plan that will be established in the near future. We promise to work with the best interests of our Bayport-Blue Point family in our minds, and to keep the community fully engaged every step of the way.
